Are you a clutterbug/hoarder?

Do you hold on to clothes that you may be able to fit one day? Or shoes that you haven't worn in over a year? Have misc. mail and other assorted items lying around your house that you find it difficult to part with? Asking for a friend.

Yes. My mom passed away 10 years ago, the house had been in the family 70 years. My (now) husband moved here with his household goods. And I've been hoarding for decades. We filled two dumpsters, donated & gave away and still too much stuff. I was watching "Hoarders" one day and one of the shrinks said, "It's very difficult for artists and craftspeople because they can think of a use for ANYTHING." So that's my new excuse. Finally got to the point where it's just in the basement - rest of the house is good / normal.
